Cardio machines break down. Period. This is why all the smart gym owners i've ever known LEASE their cardio machines and buy their strength training equipment.

I mean, I remember being a "grunt" trainer...doing "floor duty"...I cleaned the crap out of a gazillion stairmasters and treads but never did anything past that as far as maintenance goes. I'm guessing routine maintenance should be performed, to some degree, on a daily basis.

I detest cardio machines. Expensive pieces of junk.
